Anti-govt campaign after Eid: PML-N

Published November 9, 2004

FAISALABAD, Nov 8: The PML-N will launch a movement against the government after Eidul Fitr. This was stated by former MNA Sher Ali and city PML-N president former MPA Khwaja Islam while talking to newsmen here on Monday night.

They claimed that the government was hatching conspiracies by spreading rumours about deals with opposition parties to divide them over the protest movement against the uniform of Gen Musharraf. Every move of the government to blackmail or dodge the opposition would be foiled and vigorous protest movement launched against the unconstitutional rulers, they added.

They said the treasury benches disgraced the supremacy of the assemblies by presenting and approving the resolution in favour of army uniform for the president.

They said the behaviour and policies of the present rulers were a stigma on the democratic set up. "They are befooling the nation by presenting fictitious facts and figures about the pace of economy and progress in the industrial sector."

Replying to a question about the return of the Sharifs, Sher Ali said the exiled leaders would return during the protest movement or immediately after success of the anti-government campaign.

"There is no chances of next local bodies elections as the coming year would be the year of general elections. The days of the present regime are numbered," Sher Ali observed.
